Need some Vista help please

[Guest]

Just bought vista ulitmate ,I couldnt upgrade my system as it said i need to
do it from windows which it wouldnt let me do i had to boot the disc from the
start (i know ive prob done something wrong there ) anyway after reading some
views ive decided to do a clean install .
Everything starts ok i put the activation code in and go forward but its
telling me it can find the drivers on my hard drive to proceed .My Xp is
activated .

as im new to this i thought id ask the experts for some help.

you need to supply drivers.
drivers used by XP are not accessible by Vista

See if you can find your rivers here: http://www.radarsync.com/vista

Do you have a RAID system? 2 hard drives that mirror each other?
Vista woudln't let me load, until I loaded the raid drivers for my computer.
That is the only time I have seen Vista ask for drivers.
Your best bet is to call Microsoft, they will help you with the install for
free.

You need to provide more information to help the folks here help you. What
is the computer and configuration? What kind of and how many hard drives?
ATA or SATA? How are they partitioned? Where is XP installed? With that
start, then describe step by step what you have tried to do, and what
happens along the way.
